The simplest wooden pliers in the world!

To craft is one thing, but to create something with the least amount of steps and in the simplest possible way is an art. Once in a blue moon we find tutorials that are so easy, so geniously simple, that our jaws drop. This video from woodcraftmarketing is one of those rare tutorials. Imagine making a set of wooden pliers from just one piece of wood and ten strategically placed cuts. Can’t be done? Then watch this and be amazed! If you want to try this at home, be sure to have bandages ready, because this technique will require the knife to come in contact with your thumb. So in your first attempt, you will probably cut yourself a little. But what great piece of art has ever been made without a little pain right?
